REFERENCE

Your Belkin VGA Adapter is capable of either “multimode” or “fixed-mode” settings.

Multimode settings allow you to change resolutions anytime through the Control Panel/Monitors in the Mac OS®, without having to restart your computer. A MultiSync monitor may be required for some settings, depending on which Mac OS and Mac computer you are using.

Fixed-mode settings, unlike multimode, keep your monitor on one resolution. In order to change resolutions once fixed-mode is in effect, you must change the settings on your VGA Adapter, and then restart your computer.

Finding Other Multimode Settings

To find other settings supported by your Mac, review Table 1. Note: For example, the Mac LC II has an “X” in columns A and B.

Look in Table 2 for rows A and B. There, you pick your preferred setting. Setting B is more desirable than A because it is a multimode setting, and allows you more flexibility in choosing resolution settings. Be sure your monitor supports the settings you wish to use before proceeding.

Set your VGA Adapter’s rotary knob on 0 and all the DIP switches OFF, except 8, as described on setting# B in Table 2.

Restart your computer. You will have the multimode selections in your Mac Control Panel.

TROUBLESHOOTING

There is no image, or the image has no vertical hold.

1.The monitor and the computer are not synchronized correctly. Try changing the settings of both DIP switches 5 and 6, or just DIP switch 7.

2.The monitor does not support the resolution selected.

Try changing to a different switch setting, and then restart the computer.

There is no color in the image.

This is most likely caused by changing switch settings while the computer boots up. Go into the “Control Panel/Monitors” in the Macintosh Apple menu. Select the color depth you prefer, and click “OK”.

The image is too small on the screen.

1.Adjust the screen size by using the controls on your monitor.

2.If the monitor cannot expand the image to fit the entire screen using its controls, the monitor simply cannot support that resolution. Try switching to a lower resolution.
